Orla has an eReader - Junior Cycle Mathematics - Question 4 - 2016

To determine if the screen covers more than 80% of the area of the front of the eReader, we first need the area of the front:

$$ext{Area} = 11 ext{ cm} imes 16 ext{ cm} = 176 ext{ cm}^2$$

Now, to find 80% of this area:

80 ext{% of Area} = 0.8 imes 176 ext{ cm}^2 = 140.8 ext{ cm}^2

Next, we compare the area of the screen (126 cm²) to 80% of the area of the front:

• The area of the screen is 126 cm², which is less than 140.8 cm².

Therefore, since 126 cm² < 140.8 cm², Orla's statement is incorrect. The screen does not cover more than 80% of the area of the front of the eReader.
